Autoguide has learned that Honda will announce on Friday that production of their Element compact SUV will cease. No official reasons were given, but one can suspect that slow sales of the vehicle, combined with strong sales of the Honda CR-V, led to the decision.
Stay tuned for more as we await official word from Honda on the fate of the Element.

I'm in my Element. This car does'nt know what it wants to be, but it's everything. Rick
The Honda Element EX (4 wheel drive) was the concept of the car like no others. The excellent braking system, no problem with transmission whatsoever. Ask the dealer repair shops. They did not get a single Element to replace transmission. Very good handling with Touring Suspension. Short enough to park where other cars can't. The best and unique concept of the back door that opens partially upper portion up and lower portion down. If you are tired on the road you can make your bed in this car. Finally the Element was named No.1 Car of The Year in 2011 among the small SUV. The most reliable and the cheapest maintenance. Thats why I will miss my Honda Element so much. Previously I've got 2004 model now I am running 2007 with 100+ and very, very minor repairs ( 3 electronic sensors) and right axle. Thats it! Someone may argue that the new Honda CRV is so cool. Take a ride and compare the suspension. The CRV is more for veterans 70+ with that kind of ride. I hope the market will fill out this empty space sooner than later. Maybe Nissan or Toyota? Who knows. Thats my wish for the NEW YEAR 2012.
